Loot (for Adventurers) (Genesis)

Loot (for Adventurers) is an experimental fantasy anthology set in the Lootverse - a realm where adventurers carry mysterious bags of found artifacts imbued with magic and history, where the Order of Vitriol keeps its Archive and the Order of Fury sends its Sheriffs, and where every relic has a name and a history. Across these canonically-bound tales, a disgraced performer searches for his lost magic, a sky-borne library is stolen out from under three Orders at once, an amnesiac stranger washes ashore carrying a dead man's voice, and a queen writes her diary to Death itself.

Alongside the stories you'll find songs, scrolls, prophecies, an inquisitor's journal, a field guide, bedtime rhymes, and one very good recipe - the recovered fragments of a world, assembled for the first time into a single illustrated volume.

One of the earliest experiments in truly collaborative worldbuilding, this collection was written, edited, illustrated, and curated by a global team of writers, artists and craftsmen - real life adventurers. In that same spirit, the entire work - every story, character, concept, and piece of art - is dedicated to the public domain under Creative Commons Zero. No rights reserved. An internet-native global experiment in collaborative worldbuilding, the Lootverse is created by all and owned by none. Thou mayest build with us.
